This excellent highball was created at the San Francisco bar ABV. If your favorite after-work bar doesn't have Génépy, ask them to get it. It's not crazy expensive, it plays well with many spirits, and it's also delicious on its own. Your favorite single-malt whiskey can be substituted for the Hakushu (even if it doesn't come from an equally high altitude).
